Well I'm walking along this road across this desolate country
I got a hundred things to do before I'm leavin'
I got a thousand years and a million tears
Packed into one lonely week of life
But you can do so much with your touch
With your feeling

Talkin' 'bout mmm...
Taking your love down
Saving all of your smiles
Stashin' 'em in my stashpile
Talkin' 'bout mmm...
Taking your love down
I wanna build you up, baby,
I don't wanna let you down

They told me before I left my warm and cozy home
They said the city lights and the life, sure to burn me
But it seems as though folks got to know about love and sympathy
I might could teach them something, and maybe they can learn me

Talkin' 'bout mmm...
Taking your love down
Saving all of your smiles
Stashin' 'em in my stashpile
Talkin' 'bout mmm...
Taking your love down
I wanna build you up, baby,
I don't wanna let you down

But I'm walking along this road across this desolate country
I got a hundred things to do before I'm leavin'
But I can stop for a while and give you a smile if love is what you need
Come on and hear me out with your touch, with your feeling

Talkin' 'bout mmm...
Taking your love down
Saving all of your smiles
Stashin' 'em in my stashpile
Talkin' 'bout mmm...
Taking your love down
I wanna build you up, baby,
I don't wanna let you down
Don't wanna let you down
Don't wanna let you down
